Two full company works in dramatically different styles take the stage in this double bill as The National Ballet of Canada performs Crystal Pite’s acclaimed Flight Pattern alongside Serge Lifar’s Suite en Blanc, a love letter to classical technique. Each harnesses the power of the group to unique effect, with Pite exploring the physical and emotional toll of the refugee crisis and Lifar experimenting aesthetically, with pattern, nuance and line. Together, these works put nearly every dancer in the company onstage in powerful movement.
